Chapter 1443: Black Lightning
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The powers of three level-nine superpower possessors, in combination, could destroy the world. However, the level-nine monster was super powerful too. It was immune to most of the existing superpowers!
Thankfully, Wu Chengyue’s lightning was still able to hurt it, and so could the dark fire that belonged to the Chief lady from All Beings Base. It seemed that some special kinds of superpowers could be harmful to it.
Would Lan Lu’s spirit power be able to hurt it effectively?
The possibility was low, but Si Kongchen still decided to stay and wait to see the result.
At that time, the clouds in the sky started to grow thicker and press down. The tornado had darkened the sky, and the growing dark clouds dimmed the daylight even further.
Boom! Boom!
Muffled, rumbling thunders were heard from the dark clouds while purple lightning bolts started flashing.
Woosh!
The monster suddenly stopped hovering and raised its head alertly to stare at the dark clouds that were coming closer and closer. It showed no sign of flinching though, and it only gazed at the sky with confusion and hesitation.
At that very moment, a bolt of lightning burst along with a deafening sound. The lightning fell from the sky, striking straight at the monster. The energy contained in the lightning made the monster dodge automatically. However, it wasn’t fast enough, so the lightning landed right on its back.
“Roarrrr!”
The monster roared in rage. That lightning hurt it ten times more than the cannon strike did!
The thunders grew louder and louder as the clouds came closer and closer to the ground, along with an invisible but fierce and depressing vibe.
At that point, the monster’s pair of huge eyes finally showed fear. It bared its sharp teeth and widened its eyes, glaring at the sky ferociously, as though there was an invisible enemy in the sky who was hiding in the darkness and hitting it with lightning.
As the monster became alert against the sky, another purple lightning bolt, which was as thick as an adult’s thighs, descended from the sky.
This time, the monster dodged swiftly. It had been fixing its eyes on the sky the whole time after all. However, another lightning bolts blasted on its tail right after it dodged to the side and generated a deafening sound. It didn’t even notice when the second lightning bolt fell.
“Errrrr!” A piece of flesh near the root of its tail was blown off, and the monster screeched in pain.
The sizzling noises caused by lightning still didn’t end. As the monster was screeching, a wave of lightning bolts fell from the sky. Those lightning bolts were no longer purple but dark-purple.
It took less than one millisecond for the wave of dark lightning bolts to fall from the clouds.
“Roar!” The monster flashed to a mile away within a blink, but a few wounds were still left on its body. Those wounds weren’t lethal for its enormous body, which was over a thousand meters long. However, the pain was driving it crazy.
“Great! Wu Chengyue’s power is working! We made the right choice!” Wei Haichao and the others were thrilled to see the monster’s reaction.
“Roarrrr!” A mile away, the monster turned and roared at the dark clouds in the sky, launching its sound attack.
“Eh!” Wu Chengyue, who was standing on the ground and controlling the lightning coughed blood.
He summoned the lightning in the sky, using a great amount of his own energy. The natural lightning generated a greater power and forged the dark lightning. He was already having difficulty controlling the natural power that was way too strong for him. After all, he wasn’t a real level-nine superpower possessor. His power was boosted forcibly. Therefore, as the monster roared at the dark clouds, a counterforce was generated to hurt him.
He had wounded the monster, and the latter had given him internal injuries in return. The two of them seemed to have broken even.
Lin Qiao was sitting in the living room of her house in the space, with her eyes closed to observe the situation on the outside. Teng was sitting by her side. This time, they didn’t bring Wu Yueling along but left her at Lin Feng’s place with Lin Xiaolu’s company.
Sensing the monster’s vibe closely, Lin Qiao felt that something inside her get agitated. When the monster roared at the clouds, she felt as if her heart were thumping. Sitting beside her, Teng stayed quiet in deep thoughts.
Lin Qiao opened her eyes to find the boy thinking with a frown. She couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Have you figured out a way to bring the monster down?”
Even from inside the space, Teng was able to sense the energy fluctuations on the outside and roughly read the battle situation. He didn’t have the image though, so he couldn’t grasp all the details.
He hadn’t expected that his father could be so strong at level-nine! He could feel the energy contained in Wu Chengyue’s lightning. That was an explosive kind of energy, stronger than the natural lightning energy by tens of times over, also creating a weird magnetic field.
Judging by its vibe, the monster was extremely dangerous indeed. But compared with the power coming from the dark clouds, it was actually weaker.
Wu Chengyue might be able to defeat the monster if he were a real level-nine superpower possessor, or at least drive it away. However, he wasn’t really at level-nine yet. His power had been boosted to that level temporarily, but it was still not as strong as the true level-nine powers. Also, he could only maintain that power for a limited time. When the time was up, he would drop back to level-eight.
On hearing Lin Qiao’s question, Teng raised her head, looked at her and said, “I can’t sense its weakness from here. I need to go out.”
The space was like a screen, weakening his sensations.
Lin Qiao spent a moment measuring the current situation. Wu Chengyue was keeping the monster busy while Si Kongchen and Lan Lu were watching. No accidents should happen, she assumed.
With that thought, she decided to send Teng out to let him find the monster’s weakness. He was the only one capable of that after all.
“I’m taking you out so you can take a look at it. But make it quick!” She said to Teng.
“It’s okay,” said Teng to her, “Don’t worry, I’m here. I’ll be able to suppress the zombie inside you even if it wakes up.”
